166215 South Marston 12 May 2021

Viewed from the relatively new footbridge at South Marston, 166215 heads away from the camera on 12 May 2021, as it works the 1B07 09:13 Reading to Newport GWR service. This was a brave attempt to fill in for the non-available Class 800 fleet, although most other trains on the route had merely been cancelled. Because of a 26 minute late departure from Reading, this was running half an hour late.
